Gift inscription to the front endpaper, else near fine; in a price-clipped dust jacket with mild wear to the spine ends and corner tips. The story of a wayward Barnacle Goose and its relationship with a Canadian goose, interwoven with the tale of forbidden love of a Scottish-Canadian biologist and a Cree girl. The second book by the Canadian author and amateur naturalist who first garnered national prominence with LAST OF THE CURLEWS, the classic story about a bird about to become extinct.
